Tim from Pest Control Empire is reporting a surge in termite control Melton and Melton South. He notes, “I’ve been conducting termite inspections regularly in the Melton area and the majority of homes I have inspected have displayed evidence of termite activity. On average, it’s believed that one in every four homes will be impacted by termites in its lifetime. That is a scary statistic considering how much damage these wood-eating creatures can do”.

Tim from Pest Control Empire is reporting a very busy period for
Melbourne pest control. He notes, “It’s been a very cold winter and as a result, there has been a surge in the need for our services. Possums have been invading our homes in large numbers as they try to evade the cold weather. Rodents, particularly rats, are also moving indoors in large numbers. If you could sleep outside in the cold or inside a nice and warm roof with a heater operating below, where would you rather sleep?” Read More
Possums are invading Williamstown homes in large numbers this winter, according to Tim of Pest Control Empire. Possums prefer the hollowed out parts of trees to live in but these are very few and far between these days. As a result, they have become comfortable living in the roof space of homes throughout Melbourne. Tim says Williamstown has been a particularly popular area so far this year. He notes, “There are quite large and lavish homes in Williamstown. The majority of homes are also quite old. Natural wear and tear has allowed for access points to develop. A curious possum will soon find any access point and take up residence in your home!”

Tim reports a considerable presence of rodents, rats in particular, as well as possums living among us. He continues, “I find that possums and rats seem to live hand in hand.

Tim from Pest Control Empire received a call to a Mitcham home, a suburb in Melbourne’s eastern suburbs, as the tenant was complaining of noises in the walls and ceiling. It didn’t take long for Tim to realise that the home was infested with rats. To be blunt, the home was in poor condition. Spare tyres, a vehicle body and other general rubbish was scattered throughout the front and backyard. The garden was overgrown, the bins were overfilled and the gutters were clogged with debris. To make matters worse, there were more entry points into the home than you could poke a stick at. Read More

A common occurrence in the colder months is for animals such as possums, rats and mice to venture into our homes in search of a suitable location to live. Our subfloors, walls and roof voids provide perfect harbourage for these pests. Tim Clinnick of Pest Control Empire specialises in residential pest control and has reported a major increase in animal pest activity in and around Melbourne this year. He says, “The summer saw a dramatic increase in wasps. This winter the possum and rodent population also seems to have exploded”. A serious problem with animals coming into our homes is that they will often die indoors. A rotting animal carcass is a serious health risk and the resultant smell is unbearable. Read More
